“The DiN ambient label was set up by Ian Boddy in 1999 to release ambient electronica that bridged the gap between the analogue sound of the early 70’s synth pioneers and the digital soundscapes of the more experimental modern exponents of electronic music.” Now celebrating their 25th Anniversary with a colossal 20 track compilation (CD/Digital), Ian Boddy discusses the label and its history with Philippe Blache.

David Curington :: Composer REACTS / After These Messages (Difficult Art And Music)
We find it all confusing and compelling at the same time. A serious snapshot through our day-to-day lives and the mundane commercial messaging that unfortunately is part-and-parcel of corporate powerhouse greed taking over our devices.

Rontronik :: Zero Eight (Tygr Rawwk Rcrds)
Zero Eight pulls off a rather satisfying mix of noise, ambient, and experimental electronica. The way the record is constantly shifting into new ideas makes it really engaging from front to back, but so does its claustrophobic atmosphere.
Sommerfeld :: Expansion EP (Ryu)
It is easy to get entrained on these beats, and they have just the right level of aggression to appease fans of noise and post-industrial music as they would those who are just in it for the pure power of the pulse that hits like a lightweight spinning a punching bag.
